Johnbuckner, we're not talking about RC car races, we are talking about the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA), American Race Car Association (ARCA), American Motorcycle Association (the "Other" AMA).  If you are a member of these organizations you can go to any track in the nation and use it whenever you want for a daily/hourly fee.  You don't have to be a member of the local club to go do what you love in these organizations.  There's ALOT more money , time, and danger involved with these groups.  Why can't  our AMA be the same way????????? Pay your dues to them, then go use any flying field you want , anywhere you want for a daily/ hourly fee.  If you want a say in the way the field looks/ operates, then join the club, but if you don't want to be involved in the politics then just pay a daily/ hourly usage fee.  If it was this way I would pay $100 for an AMA membership as long as I knew I could go anywhere to fly.
